SpaceX’s upcoming rocket called Starship Super Heavy formerly known as BFR, will no longer be made out of lightweight Carbon Composites, it’ll sweat a lot, and just MIGHT need a TON of WD-40. So we’ll take a look at all of Elon’s most recent claims about stainless steel actually being the best option and see if we come to the same conclusion. We’ll also take a look at some other rockets that are made of stainless steel and explain how SpaceX's use of this material is a little different as they’ll be using new manufacturing techniques and doing things that have never been attempted before. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This video in article version - https://everydayastronaut.com/stainless-steel-starship/ Amazing Starship renders and turn table animation by Reese Carges - https://twitter.com/AstroReeseW Thanks to HazeGrayArt for letting me use his awesome Starship landing animation!!!

SpaceX is building a massive massive new rocket down in Boca Chica Texas that will never make it to space. No, this isn’t clickbait, this particular rocket will never go to space. Because it’s not designed to. This is just a hopper version of their upcoming starship, that some people are calling StarHopper, and at first, this thing will likely only fly a few meters at most. But don’t get me wrong, of course when the actual Starship goes online, I fully expect it to make it to space! So today we’re going to do a quick history on SpaceX’s previous fleet of hoppers, why they build them, what this one is going to accomplish and then we’ll build a version in Kerbal Space Program and demonstrate what we’ll hopefully see the StarHopper do in 2019! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to install Realism Overhaul to Kerbal Space Program - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a6PLkDUWF4 Thanks to HazeGrayArt for letting me use his awesome Starship landing animation!!!

Irwin and Scott underwent extensive fieldwork, including using a geological rover (“Grover”) as part of their training. Worden’s training for lunar mapping while alone in orbit involved flying over new terrain to practice the fine art of geomorphological interpretation from above.” When We Blew Up Arizona to Simulate the Moon https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2013/01/when-we-blew-up-arizona-to-simulate-the-moon/267456/ “In the late 1960s, NASA created an off-world analogue with dynamite and fertilizer bombs outside Flagstaff, Arizona, so that astronauts could train for the Apollo missions.” Looking Back at NASA’s Strange Mobile Lunar Laboratory https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/nasa-had-plans-geology-lab-moon-180952137/ “Once upon a time, NASA had big plans for the Moon… back in the early 1960’s NASA commissioned General Motors to build the MOLAB, a mobile geological laboratory that would have allowed astronauts to live and work away from a planned lunar base for up to two weeks, collecting samples and learning more about the composition of the Moon.” ____________________ The path to the moon traced a dangerous line of risk and reward. In a race against time, the Apollo Program challenged our scientific capabilities and redefined the boundaries of humanity.

They're working around the clock building this thing, and while it doesn't look like something that would fly, Elon Musk keeps telling us it will. Which leads to questions as to why it's designed the way it is, why the team seem to be working so hard, whether the engine nozzles we can see are attached to real engines?

The pilots of Virgin Galactic's VSS Unity reached an altitude of 82.7km this morning, which is high enough for the FAA to award them commercial astronaut wings.

It’s 5 a.m. on a normal September day and #NASAExplorers have gathered in a California field to watch a rocket launch light up the pre-dawn sky. On board the rocket is a satellite more than 10 years in the making, with one single instrument that will revolutionize the study of ice on Earth. Join the team in the excitement and stress of watching ICESat-2 launch into space and begin its work measuring our home planet.

Blue Origin, perhaps the sleeping giant of the aerospace industry, will be going from a tiny suborbital rocket, to one of the biggest rockets ever made… Today, we’re finally going to do a quick rundown on Blue Origin, talk about their upcoming New Glenn rocket and then compare it to some of the other Heavy Lift Launchers it will be competing against.

Aerospace engineers at NASA Langley are helping the Space Launch System —NASA's next heavy-lift rocket— get off the ground. @NASA_SLS will be the most powerful rocket we’ve ever built. Potential stops? The Moon and Mars.

Comments by Elon Musk on Twitter tell us that SpaceX will be turning the Upper stage of Falcon 9 into something closer to the upper stage of the BFR to test key technologies: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1060253333116473344 Details are of course vague at this time, but after thinking about it I think I have a good idea of what to expect based on what's been revealed, what we know and when this is supposed to fly.

Yes, I know I just woke up and the Soyuz story needs to be covered, that'll be done in a couple of hours. However here's what I recorded last night about the Air Force funding of these 2 future launch vehicles, which is big news for US launch industry.

Reuters reports that Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov said on Thursday he hoped the United States would be understanding about a malfunction that occurred during a launch of the “Soyuz” spacecraft. He was quoted as saying by Interfax news agency that manned space flights would be suspended until an investigation into the causes of the malfunction is completed. “Soyuz” made an emergency landing near the city of Zhezkazgan in central Kazakhstan after its booster rockets failed in mid-air en route to the International Space Station. It had a Russian cosmonaut and a U.S. astronaut on board. http://feeds.reuters.com/~r/reuters/topNews/~3/n8vIMQg9fc4/russia-hopes-usa-will-be-understanding-about-soyuz-incident-ifax-idUSKCN1ML1BM http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit Tech using http://wochit.com

A Journey to the Edge of Time and Space Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ As we continue our look at Generation Ships, vast vessels designed to carry many thousands of colonists to distant and alien worlds centuries away, we must ask just how far and how long such ships can be made to last? Can space ships be made that will endure even longer voyages of thousands or even millions of years in the void of interstellar or even intergalactic space? Will ships, and their crews, fall apart or turn into Cargo Cults who no longer remember how their technology functions or what their mission was?

With SpaceX announcing the BFR's first official mission to the moon, the possibility of Earth to Earth travel seems a little bit closer. In this video, we look at what needs to be done before Earth to Earth rocket travel can replace the traditional airliners that we use today. We also compare the dawn of passenger rocket travel to the early days of airplanes. Thanks for watching this Primal Space video.

The 700 tonne steel table that will support Ariane 6 at liftoff was transferred to the pad at Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana on 10 September 2018. It is so large that it arrived in parts by ship in February and was then welded together and fitted with equipment at a preparation area 250 m from the launch pad. Moving this giant 4 m high, 20 m long and 18 m wide table to its permanent position on the centre of the pad is complex. Four hydraulic jacks lifted the table then two trollies moved the table to the edge of the launch pad. A temporary railway and a mechanical guidance system helped roll the table into position over the centre of the pad where it will be lowered with millimeter precision into its final position. Further mechanical, fluidic and electrical equipment will be installed inside and outside the table.

China will launch its first commercial solid-propellant carrier rocket developed by a Chinese private company later this year. The ZQ-1 rocket was developed by Landspace, a Beijing-based rocket-maker. Its technicians are former state-owned aerospace industry workers. Carrying a small satellite, the rocket will be launched at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China. The 19-meter-long rocket has a 1.35-meter diameter, a takeoff weight of 27 tons and thrust of 45 tons. It is flexible, cost-efficient and has been designed with mature technology and a fast response ability. The satellite, Future, carried by the rocket is for space science and remote sensing for a TV show on China Central Television. It will orbit for two years. The company also plans to launch ZQ-2, a liquid-fueled rocket, in 2020. ZQ is short for zhuque, which means 'vermilion bird'. It is one of the four spirits of ancient Chinese mythology, representing fire and controlling the southerly direction. China has more than 60 private companies entering the commercial space industry. They are growing fast and competing in the market for launches of small satellites and rockets.

Six decades of NASA’s supersonic research is leading the way into a new era of aviation. This research has resulted in cutting-edge technology and a unique aerodynamic design that will demonstrate the ability to fly faster than the speed of sound without creating a loud sonic boom. This will be done in flight, through the agency’s newest supersonic X-plane, the X-59 Quiet SuperSonic Technology (QueSST) aircraft. While preliminary flight research continues using F-18 research aircraft, NASA’s test pilots and engineers are developing and training with state-of-the-art tools, including simulators, an advanced eXternal Vision System (XVS), and community response technologies in anticipation of the X-59, which will be used to measure public response to sonic thumps beginning in 2023.

Look inside Boeing’s Starliner and SpaceX’s Crew Dragon, the commercial spacecraft that will fly astronauts from the U.S. to the International Space Station for the first time since 2011.

NASA recently announced who will be flying on the first commercial crew flights and both Boeing and SpaceX are racing to get their spaceships, their launch sites AND their spacesuits ready to return humans to space from US soil. Boeing’s spaceship is the CST-100 Starliner, a capsule shaped spacecraft that can fly up to 7 astronauts to space. For NASA missions to the International Space Station, it will fly up to 4 astronauts at a time, filling the rest of the capsule with cargo. The Starliner will launch on top of perhaps the most reliable rocket ever made. ULA’s Atlas V with 2 strap on solid rocket motors and 2 RL-10 upper stage engines. A configuration that an Atlas 5 has never actually flown before, but all the hardware has been flown many times throughout history. Check out my article all about what it's like to train with the Boeing CST-100 Starliner and wear their incredible space suit! https://everydayastronaut.com/boeing-starliner-astronaut/ What it's like to wear Boeing's Space Suit video - https://youtu.be/FaOAsUR-o-U Show your support, get a chance to win flown hardware and join our exclusive discord channel by becoming a Patron - http://patreon.com/everydayastronaut Music by Everyday Astronaut - http://soundcloud.com/everydayastronaut Everyday Astronaut hats, prints, shirts and more at - https://everydayastronaut.com/shop/ SpaceX models by Oli Braun http://twitter.com/oli_braun and his store - https://www.buzzspacemodels.com/

Jessi Hempel, Wired senior writer, joins the 'Squawk Box' team to discuss Paul Allen's newest 385-foot airplane.

After finding out there was a company developing a smallsat launch vehicle practically in my back yard I hard to find out more. However the company is still in stealth mode - even calling themselves "Stealth Space Company" on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/stealth-space-company/) - but between sightings of their booster, public documents, grants and leases I've got a pretty good idea of what their booster is like. The public rocket views come from a local news station which caught site of the booster in Alameda https://abc7news.com/technology/sky7-spots-stealthy-space-startup-testing-its-rocket-in-alameda/3097474/

On Aug. 16, 1963, NASA's M2-F1 aircraft prototype made its first glide flight. This wingless aircraft kind of looked like a flying bathtub. NASA made it to test a new concept called the lifting body, which was an unpowered glider that provided an alternative way to return piloted spacecraft to Earth. Instead of pummeling out of the sky in a ballistic reentry, the lifting body landed sort of like an airplane. For its first test flight, the M2-F1 was towed 12,000 feet into the air by a C-47 Skytrain and then released. Test pilot Milt Thompson was in the cockpit, and he brought the glider in for a smooth landing in California after a two-minute descent.

China on Tuesday launched Gaofen-11, an optical remote sensing satellite, as part of the country's high-resolution Earth observation project. The Gaofen-11 satellite was launched on a Long March 4B rocket at 11:00 Beijing Time from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in northern Shanxi Province. It was the 282nd flight mission by a Long March carrier rocket. The satellite can be used for land survey, urban planning, road network design, agriculture, and disaster relief. Its data will also be used for the Belt and Road Initiative. Since the Gaofen project began in 2010, China has gained an increasingly clearer view of the planet.

New Shepard flew for the ninth time on July 18, 2018. During this mission, known as Mission 9 (M9), the escape motor was fired shortly after booster separation. The Crew Capsule was pushed hard by the escape test and we stressed the rocket to test that astronauts can get away from an anomaly at any time during flight. The mission was a success for both the booster and capsule. Most importantly, astronauts would have had an exhilarating ride and safe landing. This isn’t the first time we’ve done this type of extreme testing on New Shepard. In October of 2012, we simulated a booster failure on the launch pad and had a successful escape. Then in October of 2016, we simulated a booster failure in-flight at Max Q, which is the most physically strenuous point in the flight for the rocket, and had a completely successful escape of the capsule. This test on M9 allowed us to finally characterize escape motor performance in the near-vacuum of space and guarantee that we can safely return our astronauts in any phase of flight. Also on M9, New Shepard carried science and research payloads from commercial companies, universities and space agencies.

On July 17, 1962, the American test pilot Bob White broke the world record for the highest altitude flight. He took off from Edwards Air Force Base in a rocket-powered X-15 aircraft and made it to an altitude of 314,750 feet. That's almost 60 miles! At the time, the Air Force considered the edge of space to be 50 miles above the Earth. So White received astronaut wings for his record-breaking spaceflight.

The Falcon 9. The world’s FIRST reusable rocket. Wait. No it’s not. Do you remember the Space Shuttle? It had those solid rocket boosters and the orbiter, which were both reusable weren’t they? Well, today we’re going to talk about why the Space Shuttle failed to actually be reusable and wound up being described with a more accurate word, refurbish-able. People often cite the shortcomings of the Space Shuttle and are quick to point it to SpaceX’s claims of the Falcon 9 booster being reusable. So today we’re going to look at what it took to get the space shuttle operational between flights, what it takes to get a Falcon 9 operational between flights, and why SpaceX’s first stage boosters take much less of a beating than the Space Shuttle. We’ll also do a quick reminder of what technologies SpaceX added to their Block 5 booster to hopefully achieve their goal of making a rapidly reusable rocket that can truly be reused 10 times before needing serious refurbishment. ----------------------------------------------------- What are those moving globes on my desk???

Space is hard. There’s a reason we use rocket science as a benchmark for anything extremely difficult. I for one champion all things space and eagerly await every single upcoming space event. But, in order to move forward, we’d better look back at some past failures and see what we’ve learned from them. What better way to do that than to watch some of the biggest boom’s in spaceflight history? BUT as always on my channel, this isn’t just a random compilation of crazy explosions, nope sorry… I’ll be teaching you what went wrong and other random facts about each mission so we too can learn while we watch some fireworks…. After all, mistakes are only mistakes if you don’t learn anything from them. That being said, let’s see some of the biggest booms in rocket history! 12: SpaceX landing attempts (2015) 11: SM-65 Atlas, 6/11/1957 10: Titan 1, 12/12/1959 9: Atlas/Centaur 5, 3/2/1965 8: Falcon 9 / Amos 6, 9/1/2016 7: Antares / CRS ORB-3, 10/28/2014 6: Juno II / Explorer S-1, 7/16/1959 5: Ariane 5, 6/4/1996 4: Proton / GLONASS, 7/2/2013 3: Titan IV / A-20, 8/12/98 2 Delta II / GPS IIR-1, 1/17/1997 1: N1 / L1 ZOND, 7/3/1968 Rockets in Everyday Places - https://youtu.be/cLJkk-iHr8Q Matt Travis "It's gonna get loud" footage - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZ0SgAU9LXI&t=36s Antares failure from Elliot Severn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9ythm-Rjy4 Amos - 6 - http://uslaunchreport.com Follow and Like my new series on Facebook Watch with Space.com "Spacing Out!" - https://www.facebook.com/SpacingOutEverydayAstronaut/ My second place Tesla commercial "Spaceships.

The Saturn V was an American human-rated expendable rocket used by NASA between 1967 and 1973. The three-stage liquid-fueled super heavy-lift launch vehicle was developed to support the Apollo program for human exploration of the Moon and was later used to launch Skylab, the first American space station. The Saturn V was launched 13 times from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida with no loss of crew or payload. As of 2018, the Saturn V remains the tallest, heaviest, and most powerful (highest total impulse) rocket ever brought to operational status, and holds records for the heaviest payload launched and largest payload capacity to low Earth orbit (LEO) of 140,000 kg, which included the third stage and unburned propellant needed to send the Apollo Command/Service Module and Lunar Module to the Moon. To date, the Saturn V remains the only launch vehicle to carry humans beyond low Earth orbit. A total of 15 flight-capable vehicles were built, but only 13 were flown. An additional three vehicles were built for ground testing purposes. A total of 24 astronauts were launched to the Moon, three of them twice, in the four years spanning December 1968 through December 1972.
